Abstract: The food problem exists as long as humanity exists. The amount of food available at all stages of productive forces and productive relations was insufficient. The food problem was one of the main causes of the devastating wars of conquest. And in the third Millennium of world civilization every ninth person in the world does not reach, and by 2020, according to FAO hunger can affect every fourth inhabitant of the planet. At the same time, up to 75‰ of food products in economically developed countries fall into waste. The rich countries are unwilling to share food with the poor on an ongoing basis, although there is a global humanitarian system. Food security is the Foundation of economic and national security of any state. In connection with the vast territory of Russia, the food problem in addition to the national one has a regional aspect. The "food security" and "food security" categories are not applicable to regions. In a single state, antagonism between individual regions in solving the food problem is unacceptable; regions can not exert pressure on each other with food. A strategic place in food security in the region and the country is meat and product sub-complex, since the consumption of meat and meat products per capita is one of the criteria of the standard of living of the population. The article considers the development of regional beef cattle breeding, its place in the meat balance of the region and the economy of agricultural organizations. The current level of beef and veal production is compared with the pre-reform, trends in the development of indicators are identified and the reasons for the changes are highlighted. The evaluation of regional programs of meat sub-sector development is given and strategic directions of its development are defined.
